2. Courtesy of the Floor to Visitors.
Mayor Borno opened the Courtesy of the Floor to Visitors. He welcomed the audience and explained the
process for public comments.
A. Presentation by Representative Janet Adkins.
Mayor Borno introduced and welcomed Florida Representative Janet Adkins. Representative Adkins thanked
the Commission for allowing her to be here, stating it is important that she come before them so they can hold
her accountable for what happens in Tallahassee. She proceeded by giving a Legislative Update of the 2012
session to the City Commission and audience explaining the challenge this year was another budget shortfall.
She gave a PowerPoint presentation including slides of Florida's Unemployment Rate, stating it has changed
from 10.2% in October 2011 to 9% as of last week; the 2012/13 Appropriations by Fund Type; History of 10
years of General Revenue Appropriations; Budget Highlights; the validated Florida House map and the
Senate and Congressional Maps, which have not been validated; a budget overview; a review of the
Florida/County Economic Indicators /Trends; and the Bills of local interest passed during the Legislative
Session. She also explained what could be expected from 2013 Legislative Session. She further explained
the continued work being done to save the St. Johns River Ferry and the work being done to improve the
educational system. She summarized the Amendments that will be on the November 2012 Ballot. She closed
by introducing Marianne Marshall of her legislative staff who works with their constituent relations, stating if
anyone ever needs assistance with State government in cutting through the bureaucratic red tape, do not
hesitate to reach out to her office.
April 23 2012 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING Nee 2
Commissioner Mark thanked Representative Adkins for her leadership and follow - through, especially with
the St. Johns River Ferry. Representative Adkins stated there are a lot of people who depend on the ferry for
transportation and she believes they can now see the pathway forward to save the ferry. She stated she is
encouraged but follow - through is absolutely critical.
Commissioner Woods thanked Representative Adkins stating she is the first Representative who has come
speak with us and she really appreciates it.
Commissioner Daugherty stated Representative Adkins will be at the Beaches Diner next Tuesday if anyone
wanted to come meet and speak with her.
Mayor Borno discussed Home Rule with Representative Adkins. He asked how badly the State
Transportation Trust Funds got raided this year. Representative Adkins stated the Transportation Budget
actually increased this year but she will get him the exact numbers. He thanked her for her time tonight,
stating he looks forward to working with her in the future.
Sally Clemens, 1638 Park Terrace West, addressed the Commission stating any breathing citizen of
Atlantic Beach has an opinion about the Atlantic Beach Police Building but they are not necessarily biased.
She stated bias is based on prejudice, not reason, and mature citizens can have open minds. She stated the
citizens on the Police Building Committee seem to come from all walks of life and have different life
experiences. She stated after listening to Mitch Reeves at the last meeting, there seems to be no financial gain
for him. She stated Juliette Hagist's work experience of cleaning police uniforms brings a different need for
space. She stated Atlantic Beach is not a cookie cutter community and design must be considered to blend
with our community character. She stated parking spaces are a need and, if there are not enough, our park
users will not be using our green spaces. She stated over six years ago a location for the police building was
desired to be put on City -owned property but if different property within the City limits could be obtained as
a gift or at reasonable market value, this could be another consideration. She stated she believes using a
specialized company to help with the community vision project, as discussed at strategic planning, is a good
suggestion because these professionals look into the future and save us money in the long run. She further
stated the Charter does need a review, which could be done by interested Atlantic Beach citizens, from which
staff could prepare a ballot for a referendum.
Lee Edgar, 1185 Stocks Street, thanked everyone involved for his septic to City sewer conversion stating
everyone was very helpful. He further thanked the Police for getting the bicycles without lights off the
streets. He addressed the 35 mph speed limit issue, asking would it be enforceable and would it slow the bad
people down. He stated it would take the already overtaxed officers off of what he calls "Daytona North" or
the Intracoastal Bridge. He stated his problem is the merging of traffic at the last possible moment from
people trying to head west over the Intracoastal Bridge from the two left hand lanes going south on Mayport
Rd. He stated at 45 mph he has a chance, but at 35 mph with everybody doing that except the bad people, he
believes it would be a disaster down there.
Don Remley, 1309 Violet Street, addressed the Commission regarding the intersection of Atlantic Blvd. and
Mayport Road. He stated it is the worst intersection he has seen. He stated when coming off of Atlantic
Blvd. and turning onto Mayport Road, you don't get much of a chance to get up to speed when you have cars
coming from everywhere. He stated he doesn't see any way to fix the traffic, but maybe lowering the speed
limit would just slow things down a little bit and give us a better chance.
No one else from the audience spoke so Mayor Borno closed the Courtesy of the Floor to Visitors.

5. Committee Reports
A. Request for extension of time — Police Building Ad Hoc Committee.
Chief Classey explained Chairman Varney was out of the country so he would present the committee's
request for an extension of the timeframe that was put in the initial committee charge. He stated they have
had some scheduling conflicts and the next meeting will be held on May 9 and they will continue with their
work toward reaching a recommendation for the Commission at that time.
City Manager Hanson explained there was no specific date requested in this request from the committee. He
stated he believes it is appropriate, if the Commission considers this, to give a date certain as to when this
should be completed rather than it being open- ended. He recommends that they should be able to finish by
the end of May. Chief Classey stated that is within an acceptable range, but he can't speak for the committee,
but it appears to be nearing the end of many of the decisions they would need to make in order to author the
report. He believes there would need to be at least one meeting and then two meetings following the end
meeting to review a draft report and then approve the final report, which could be accomplished by that time.
Motion: Extend time for the Police Building Ad Hoc Committee to June 1, 2012.
Moved by Daugherty, Seconded by Mark
April 23, 2012 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING Page 4
Commissioner Daugherty explained if they end by June 1, they could have their report ready for the agenda
for the June 11 Commission meeting.
Commissioner Woods agreed with Ms. Clemons that we have a good group in this Police Committee and she
believes everybody is there for the right reasons. She stated she appreciates the hard work they have been
doing. She further stated she is concerned that this process has been going on for a long time; they have been
looking at putting a building over here for about six years and it keeps almost getting there but not quite. She
stated, looking at the big picture, it seems to her that if that was really the right place for this building it
wouldn't have taken so much to get it there. She stated Mr. Hanson explained to the committee that they had
looked at putting a building on Mayport Road and it seemed too expensive. She stated since they did that in
2006 -2007, the economy and real estate market have changed a lot and she would like to see the committee
look at that before they are done. She stated when the building starts encroaching on the park she believes
that is where all the push back is from. She stated although the way the building is configured we are going
to end up with additional parking, but we do have to give up the green space for the parking. If the police
building is located somewhere else we don't have to give up any green space and we get a lot more parking
which will help those who use the park. She stated she wants to give the committee all the time they need to
look at the issues and does not believe setting a time for the committee is the most important thing. She
stated she prefers they ask the committee when they think they will be ready and let them set the date for us.
Mayor Borno stated he believes it is reasonable to set the June 1 date because the committee can come back at
any time to extend the time.
Commissioner Daugherty asked Mr. Hanson if Mr. Hionides' Palms property option was given to the
Committee. Mr. Hanson stated that was conveyed to the committee and it was his understanding that the
committee chose not to meet with Mr. Hionides and not to consider any other options offsite. Chief Classey
stated that was correct. He stated the committee voted unanimously not to consider putting it over on
Mayport Road.
Commissioner Daugherty stated although he would love to have it over there, they put it in the committee's
hands for a reason and they should let them do their job. He stated he does not believe they should postpone
this anymore than necessary. He stated there is a need that has existed for a very long time and the police are
working in deplorable conditions and something needs to be done about it. He stated this is a reasonable time
for them to have a couple of extra meetings and if they need more time they can come to us with a reasonable
request, but he would like to get something done on this.
Commissioner Woods stated at the one meeting she did attend, Mr. Hanson indicated the property on
Mayport Road would add a couple million dollars to the cost of the building and she is not sure, without
doing a new market research, that that still stands. She stated she still believes it would be prudent for the
committee to at least do the market research and see what the existing conditions are. She stated to
categorically say we don't want to consider anything over there is an injustice to the whole process and
everyone. Chief Classey stated there were other reasons discussed besides the cost, such as accessibility and
being centrally located and those things were considered by the committee during some of their discussions.
He stated one of the options early on was where else they looked at possibly locating it, which were primarily
City properties, but Mayport was included in that as well. He stated the committee talked specifically about
the Hionides' property and accessibility, distance and response times, etc. before they made their decision.
April 23, 2012 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING Pate 5
Commissioner Woods stated when they discussed in Strategic Planning about annexing all of the north part of
the beach, she thought that the police building really needs to be out there if that ever happens because there
would be a huge population they would need to serve other than right here.

A. City Manager's Report.
City Manager Jim Hanson reported on an emergency approval for two HVAC replacements. He stated they
did not get the final approvals for these from Jacksonville until after this agenda went out. He explained the
emergency is that one of these units is causing an odor problem due to bacteria in one of the condensing units
in City Hall, which has been ongoing for a few weeks.
Mr. Griffin further explained the HVAC replacements, stating staff recommends the approval of the
additional unit cost of $25,432 to be added to the grant. He stated this is 100% grant money.

10. Reports and /or requests from City Commissioners and City Attorney
A. Conflict of Interest Opinion.
Mayor Borno stated the City Attorney has answered this and they all have seen his opinion.
Commissioner Woods stated she was glad to see there was no conflict and asked if it is Mr. Reeves' decision
whether he votes. City Attorney Jensen stated it would be Mr. Reeves' decision to declare if he has a
conflict, as any individual member. Commissioner Woods stated she thought Mr. Jensen said that maybe he
shouldn't be voting even if he stayed on the committee. Mr. Jensen stated that was presented as something
that he should consider, but since he has been to so many meetings it would not make sense for him to not
participate anymore but if he believes there is a conflict or a perception of a conflict he could consider
abstaining from voting.
B. Community Survey by Beaches Habitat.
Commissioner Mark stated she was contacted by Leslie Katz, Director for Beaches Habitat, who explained
that Beaches Habitat along with AmeriCorps is conducting neighborhood surveys. She stated they are having
their survey blitz day on May 5 from 9:00 a.m. — 1:00 p.m. at the Beaches Habitat office on Francis Avenue,
if anyone has not filled out their survey about their neighborhood. Commissioner Woods added that
participants would get lunch and a T -shirt.
C. Speed Study for Mayport Road.
Commissioner Mark stated she was contacted by some citizens requesting the speed limit on Mayport Road
be lowered. She contacted Jerry Ausher, the traffic engineer at the Florida Department of Transportation,
regarding what they could do to look at the speed on Mayport Road. He stated they could do a speed study.
She stated they conducted the speed study on April 17 at four different locations and times and the study
showed the average speed was between 46 -48 miles. She stated Mr. Ausher explained that based on that
speed study they felt that was the proper speed and at this time did not warrant being reduced. She stated they
also provided the 2009 report that Mayor John Meserve had requested, which showed basically the same
speed studies. She stated for now it will remain at 45 mph. Discussion ensued.
Mayor Borno wished City Clerk Donna Bartle a Happy Birthday.
Commissioner Daugherty
• Stated they have several openings on some of the boards but do not have a full Board Member Review
Committee. He asked City Clerk Bartle to send the applications for the Board Member Review
Committee to the Commission and asked the Mayor to suggest someone for appointment at the next
meeting.
• Discussed crosswalks and asked staff to explore some options and what would be involved in working
with FDOT to put enhanced crosswalks on Mayport Road and Atlantic Blvd. He stated in the future
he would like to see a comprehensive pedestrian safety study done for the City.
Commissioner Mark
• Stated she had asked City Attorney Jensen to do some research on Ad Hoc committees and how the
conflict of interest in the Florida Statutes applied to them, and he responded that it looks like it does
hold them to the conflict of interest requirement. She suggested they need some standard language to
include in the charge to the committees informing them of this conflict of interest they would be
April 23, 2012 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING Page 8
under, so we could avoid this kind of issue in the future with the committees. She stated if the
Commission agrees, Mr. Jensen could draft something for them to look at. Mayor Borno stated he
believes that people who are applying for the committees should be made aware of that and it should
also be in the charge to the committee.
• Suggested setting up an interview schedule for the Board Member Review Committee applicants so
the Commission would all have the opportunity to meet with the candidates. City Manager Hanson
stated he understood Commissioner Daugherty's comment to be that he was asking the Mayor to
announce who his appointment would be prior to the next meeting so the Commissioners could
contact that one person, which would be a little at odds with what Commissioner Mark was saying.
Commissioner Daugherty stated according to the Charter, the Mayor makes the appointment and the
Commission either approves or disapproves the appointment, but they don't choose who the nominee
is. He explained he just wanted the information to be sent out to the Commission so everyone is
aware of the choices, which may affect their decision to approve or disapprove. Mr. Hanson asked if
he was requesting that the Mayor let everyone know who his recommendation would be before the
meeting. Commissioner Daugherty stated that would be ideal if he would do that.
• Regarding the crosswalks she asked if staff has already done any research on that. Mr. Hanson
explained some months ago the Commission asked staff to put together a report on pedestrian safety
but Chief Classey has been sidetracked with the Police Building ever since. He stated what he took
from the strategic planning is that staff needs to get that done as soon as the Police Building issue is
out of the way and have Chief Classey start with a comprehensive view of where have the accidents
and injuries been and how we might approach them. He stated he believes what Commissioner
Daugherty asked was just to see if the FDOT would be willing to look at this, which would not be an
excessive amount of work to make a phone call or two. Discussion ensued.
Commissioner Woods
Reminded everyone of Arts in the Park this Saturday.
Has had a couple of people contact her regarding the tennis courts in Russell Park stating the pro may
be using more courts than he is supposed to be using, or inappropriate courts, and he is not being
amenable to accommodating other people when they are there. Mr. Hanson stated they have heard the
complaints and Timmy Johnson has been involved and he believes he has a realistic solution. He
stated there are plenty of courts for everybody to cooperate.
Agreed with Commissioner Mark about language for the committees and when they get to the Charter
review the whole process of setting up the committees will be addressed.
Mayor Borno
• Reminded everyone of Gospel in the Park at Jordan Park this Saturday.
Adjournment
There being no further business to come before the Commission, the Mayor declared the meeting adjourned
at 8:00 p.m.

MAY 14, 2012
Prortamation

WHEREAS, the open exchange ofpublic discourse is essential to the democratic system
of government; and
WHEREAS, as a cornerstone of democracy Americans have observed certain rules of
behavior generally known as civility; and

"civis" meaning citizen, is behavior worthy of citizens living in a community or in common

and personal attacks detract from the open exchange of ideas, prevent fair discussion of the
issues, and can discourage individuals from participation in government; and
WHEREAS, civility can assist in reaching consensus on diverse issues and allow for
mutually respectful ongoing relationships; and
WHEREAS, civility can uplift our daily life and make it more pleasant to live in an
organized society; and
WHEREAS, the City, County and Local Government Law Section of the Florida Bar
urges the adoption of a pledge of civility by all citizens in the State of Florida.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Commission of the City of
Atlantic Beach, Florida that the month of May is proclaimed as Civility Month, and calls
upon all citizens to exercise civility toward each other.

CITY OF ATLANTIC BEACH
CITY COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: PUBLIC HEARING for UBEX -12- 00100012, request from Alice Reeves for a
use -by- exception to operate a beauty salon establishment, as is consistent with
Section 24- 109(d)(4) of the Land Development Regulations, within the
Commercial, Professional Office (CPO) Zoning District on a property located at
90 Forrestal Circle South.
SUBMITTED BY: Erika Hall
Principal Planner
DATE: April 25, 2012
BACKGROUND: The subject property was platted as an 85' x 100' lot as part of the Atlantic Beach
Villas residential subdivision in 1960/61, but falls within the approximately 170' deep area that was
rezoned to commercial use in the mid 1980s. This area was envisioned to house very low intensity
professional office uses having light traffic and infrequent customer contact, such as for the practice of
architecture, law, real estate or insurance sales. Several small scale personal care and service
establishments, such as barber or beauty shops, tailors and shoe repair shops were included as permitted
uses -by- exception, presumably to serve the surrounding neighborhoods.
Though this area has been zoned for commercial uses for over 25 years, this particular property has been
maintained as residential until now. The property is currently the subject of a short sale, and the potential
buyer wishes to utilize it for a commercial use, particularly a hair salon.
The Community Development Board considered this request along with comments from staff, the
applicant's authorized agent, and community residents in attendance at the April 17` meeting, and the
Board unanimously recommended approval, subject to the meeting of all required commercial corridor
standards, finding the request to be consistent with both the provisions of Section 24- 109(d)(4) of the
Land Development Regulations as well as the commercial intensity as designated by the adopted
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element.
Any change in the use of the property from residential to commercial, whether a use -by -right or a use -by-
exception, requires compliance with all commercial corridor development standards applicable to
nonresidential uses with frontage along Mayport Road. Exemption from any of these commercial
corridor development standards by applicants seeking a use -by- exception must be detailed in conditions
attached to the approval. A summary of those standards, as applicable to this specific request is attached.
BUDGET: No budget issues.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval of UBEX -12- 00100012, request for use -by- exception to allow
the operation of a beauty salon establishment as is consistent with Section 24- 109(d)(4) of the Land
Development Regulations, within the Commercial Professional Office (CPO) Zoning District on a
property located at 90 Forrestal Circle South, subject to compliance with all applicable commercial
development standards.
ATTACHMENTS: Summary of commercial development standards, draft CDB minutes (April
17, 2012), UBEX application, images & site plans.

development standards applicable to non - residential uses with frontage
along Mayport Road.
Ms. Hall explained the general practice of staff is to discuss such
development standards and requirements with applicants pursuing
permitted uses at the time the local business tax receipt is applied for,
being the time when a location undergoes a change of tenant/occupant or
use. Once the applicant has demonstrated compliance or is making
progress towards compliance with ; ,1Jcable standards, final approval is
,...,,
granted for the use. However, i_fCase of uses-by-exception, staff does
not grant final approval of use, the City Commission does, upon
recommendation of the Camftunity, Development Board. Thus it is
important that the required, `development standards are clearly referenced
in any recommendatkkp_, and /or approva sr p# jginating from this Board or
the Commission.

aid he feared that conversion of the residential property to a

Phyllis Davis (82 Forrestal Circle South) said she too was concerned
about the safety issue of increased traffic, noting that drivers cannot see
beyond the shrubbery and must begin pulling into Mayport Road to
determine if there are bicyclists or skaters on the sidewalks to the north of
Forrestal intersection. She also expressed concern over the amount of
parking that would be required to accommodate the use, noting that on-
street parking would add to the congestion of the streets and the ability to
maneuver them safely, and how additional impervious surface for on -site
parking would affect stormwater runoff. She also noted the property has
been poorly maintained for at least a year.
Mr. Elliot was allowed to responded, restating that the property is

CITY COMMISSION MEETING
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: Ocean Blvd., 12" and 15`" St. Water Main Replacement
Bid No. 1112 -04
SUBMITTED BY: Donna Kaluzniak, CEP, Utility Director
DATE: May 4, 2012
BACKGROUND: The City's Water Master Plan recommended an ongoing program to replace
aging and undersized water mains throughout the service area. Old cast -iron and galvanized water
mains can create water quality and pressure problems. The water mains on Ocean Blvd. between 14"
and 16`" St. and on 15' St. between East Coast Dr. and Beach Ave. are severely deteriorated and
tuberculated and the main on 12`" St. from Ocean Blvd. to Beach Ave. is undersized. These mains
were programmed for replacement this fiscal year.
Four contractors prequalified for the project, and bids were received by four contractors on May 2,
2012. Mathematical errors were found in two of the bids during the bid analysis, and Miranda
Contracting requested their bid be withdrawn due to the mathematical error. Results after correction
were:

The lowest responsive bid was from Gruhn May, Inc. in the amount of $306,803.63.
BUDGET: Because the FYI project came in well under budget, this fiscal year's project was
designed with the base bid of Ocean Blvd. and additive alternates for 12 St. (Add. Alt. 1) and 15`"
St. (Add. Alts. 2 and 3).
A total of $183,182 is budgeted for the project in the Water Fund under account 400 - 5504 -533 -6300,
and additional funds are available from the cancelled water tank rehab project to construct the Base
Bid and Additive Alternate 1 for the project in the amount of $185,127.53 and to encumber a
contingency amount of $18,500.

STAFF REPORT
City of Atlantic Beach
Commission Meeting
AGENDA ITEM: Gym Memberships for police officers
DATE: May 7, 2012
SUBMITTED BY: Michael D. Classey, Chief of Police
BACKGROUND:
The city, having recognized the need for police officers to remain in good physical condition in
order to carry out their duties in the most effective way possible, has been providing a gym
membership at Sportsplex in Neptune Beach for many years. There have recently been some IRS
changes which now require that the officers be taxed on the amount for their membership.
Following review of the tax changes with Human Resources and Finance, staff decided to re-
evaluate how this membership is provided.
The current vendor was selected many years ago based solely on cost. While cost certainly needs
to be a strong consideration, other items should be considered as well such as hours of operation,
equipment, classes etc... Many of the officers do not live close to the facility and as such do not
use it or use it rarely and have, for that reason, been taken off the city paid membership roster.
The gym has limited equipment, much of which is outdated and their hours are not conducive to
many of our officer's schedules.
After careful review, staff believes that providing the individual officer with a stipend to pay for
a gym membership of their choosing would result in a much higher usage rate and better officer
fitness, which were the original goals of the program. The current amount the city pays to the
gym is $8.00 per month. All of the gyms staff checked started at $20 per month and went up over
$40 depending on the package selected.
All three departments mentioned above agree that providing a monthly stipend to the officers'
paycheck would be a much easier way to administer the program and apply the required IRS
taxation. Staff recommends that the individual officer be eligible to receive a monthly payment
in an amount not to exceed $25 for their gym membership. The city payment would only be paid
after verification of the membership and cost and would never exceed the actual cost to the
employee. The city would also require a usage rate of at least 8 times per month. The officer
would be required to provide a usage report from actual gym records, which would be
periodically reviewed in order for them to continue receiving the benefit.
For the past several years, forfeiture funds have been used to pay for this expense. It would be
the intention of the police department to continue with this funding source. Forfeiture funds are
money or other valuables seized by the Police Department, generally from drug cases. Florida
State Statute (F.S.S.) 932.7055 (5) (a) and (b) governs the requirements for expending those
funds and requires approval from the governing body. Specifically, it states that the proceeds
may not be used to meet normal operating expenses of the agency. A few of the permissible uses
would be training, memberships and providing additional equipment.
AGENDA ITEM # 8C
MAY 14, 2012
The current annual budget for this account is $8,000, which is in excess of what would be needed
to fund this expense. There has been no General Fund money allocated for this expense for some
years.
I do certify that these requests comply with the provisions of FSS 932.7055 (5) (b).
BUDGET: Not to exceed $8,000.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of the revised policy of providing up to
$25 /month in reimbursements for gym memberships for police officers.

MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable Mayor
and Members of the C
FROM: Jim
SUBJECT: City Manaor's Report
Voting District Boundaries The City Commission discussed a staff report from Erika Hall on possible
amendments to voting district boundaries at the regular meeting of March 26, 2012. At that time, the Commission
postponed any action until after the strategic planning workshops. It is time for the Commission to provide direction
as to the next steps on this item.
The staff report presented in March included some changes to the voting districts to bring the number of registered
voters in each district more in line with the newest information available from the 2010 census. The Supervisor of
Elections had indicated a desire to have the voting precincts for Duval County match up with the Atlantic Beach
voting districts, so any voters who have their districts changed by your action will have to vote at a different location
in the future. To minimize disruption, it is better to move fewer people than more. However, discussion has taken
place in the commission meetings about putting the Donner and Jordan neighborhoods into the same voting district.
It becomes clear to anyone who has used the census block maps to quantify various proposals for district
amendments that the process does not lend itself well to a group effort. Instead, it would probably be much easier if
the Commission were to come to a consensus on some general guidelines for how the changes would be
accomplished and then let the staff come back with one or more specific alternatives to accomplish the
Commission's desire.
The purpose of this report is to request that the Commission provide direction as to the next steps for determining
voting district changes for Atlantic Beach.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Commissioners
City of Atlantic Beach
FROM: Alan C. Jensen, Esq., City Attorney
RE: Conflict of Interest
DATE: May 1, 2012
Suggested language for prospective committee members:
Telephone: (904) 246 -2500
Facsimile: (904) 246 -9960 (call first)
E -Mail: Alan @AJensenLaw.com
"Part III of Chapter 112, F1a.Stat is the Code of Ethics for Public Officers and
Employees. This Code defines "conflict" or "conflict of interest" to mean a situation in which
regard for a private interest tends to lead to disregard of a public duty or interest. F1a.Stat
§ 112.312(8). The intent of this Code, in part, is that public office not be used for private gain.
Fla. Stat § 112.311(1). A "conflict" or "conflict of interest" is something that would result in a
special private gain to an individual, usually a special financial benefit.
An appointed member of a committee of the City of Atlantic Beach will most likely be
subject to the provisions the State Code of Ethics. Disclosure of any "conflict" or "conflict of
interest" should be made as soon as possible in the appointment process. While it may be
difficult to anticipate conflicts or conflicts of interest that may arise during future committee
meetings, those known or anticipated initially, including those which others might perceive as a
conflict or conflict of interest, should be disclosed."

FW: Atlantic Beach, compete in the Earth Hour City Challenge
Jim and Donna,
I think that with the growing concern over going green and protecting the environment
we should keep a running log of all the ways that the city is striving to meet these
challenges, money and energy saved, emissions cut and all of the other tangible savings.
I know Jim has implemented policies, we have initiated recycling and the city has acquired
grants that strive to improve our city's carbon foot print but all of this is mostly invisible to
the casual observer. I also understand you have busy schedules but as the chari=er
outlines as part of the clerks duties:
(4) Provide the city commission with periodic reports as requested about the effectiveness and efficiency of
the legislative programs of the city government; and
I think it would be helpful in a number of ways to have this information collected and
made available on the website to make it easier'for everyone to see in a demonstrative
way all the good and constructive things the city is doing.
I will bring this up at our next commission meeting to see if there is a consensus.
Thank you,
Carolyn Woods

Dear Ms. Woods,
As a Atlantic Beach resident, I'm writing to urge you to help protect
AGENDA ITEM # I OC
MAY 14, 2012
my family and our city from the harmful consequences of increasingly
extreme weather by participating in WWF's Earth Hour City Challenge, a
competition among cities to prepare for a changing climate.
More and more, communities in Florida are facing stronger coastal
storms, higher temperatures, drought, and sea level rise. We aren't
alone. Cities throughout our country are on the front lines of
increasingly extreme weather, from more intense heat waves and
wildfires to droughts, rainstorms, and floods. As climate change
worsens, dangerous weather events are getting more frequent or severe -
or both.
But our city can take practical measures at the local level, to prepare
for these weather extremes, protecting us from more costly and
dangerous problems in the future. Infrastructure improvements other
proactive actions will save us money and keep our families and
communities safer and healthier.
How is our city preparing for these climatic changes? And are we doing
enough?
With this letter I challenge our city to compete in WWF's Earth Hour
City Challenge! I hope you will participate and protect my family and
fellow residents by preparing for the increasingly extreme weather our
community is already facing. Learn more at
worldwildlife.org/citychallenge.
Sincerely,
Ms. Shawn Silva
