Priority-Setting Review
Chair Stinson referred to a handout that was presented by Deputy City Manager Hogencamp of
the summary of the priority setting exercise that they went through at the last meeting and asked
that the members review the material before the next meeting for further discussion.
Pay-for Parking Discussion
Chair Stinson turned the floor over to Mr. Handline.
The group spoke about the vendors that will provide the parking system equipment; whether there
is a need for additional parking or if the existing spaces can effectively be managed; and Neptune
Beach' s participation.
Mayor Reeves spoke about the number of public parking spaces that the City of Atlantic Beach
has and the importance of reaching out to Chief Cook about enforcement.
Mr. Handline spoke about designated parking for employees, visitors and residents. He explained
implementation of the parking program would most likely be March 1st and stated he would
provide a map of the designated parking spaces.
The group discussed having a community workshop to introduce this committee' s ideas.
Chair Stinson stated the resources are available for a parking system and the financial capabilities
are very good in order to move this plan forward as a group, and make a presentation to the City
Commission for approval.
Michael Tari inquired how the money will be collected and divided up between Atlantic Beach
and Neptune Beach.
Mr. Handline explained there are a number of systems that can be put in place that will require
consensus among the stakeholders, and explained the software actually manages the revenue that
is generated. The Town Center Agency has agreed to manage this system in a cost effective way.
The group discussed the function of the kiosks, parking rates and license plate recognition.
Chair Stinson recommended the group consider rates that would make sense for the City of
Atlantic Beach and explained the system is customizable.
The group discussed initiating a proposal for the next meeting to discuss and vote on making
recommendations to the Commission.

Chair Stinson suggested four things that the members mentioned they would like to see in a
recommendation.
1.) Language that states the City of Atlantic Beach will partner with the Beaches Town
Center Agency and the City of Neptune Beach and move forward with this parking
program.
2.) Residential consideration to help control encroachment of parking into residential areas.
3.) Adopt the system and the vendor that Neptune Beach and the Town Center Agency have
selected.
4.) Define the area that we want to manage.
Chair Stinson reminded the group to review Deputy City Manager Hogencamp' s summary of the
facilitated priority—setting exercise and give feedback to Mr. Hogencamp.
Chair Stinson explained they hope to have Kevin Bodge a consultant for the group that does re-
nourishment visit and share more information regarding that topic.
Deputy City Manager Hogencamp explained he is in communication with Coastal Engineer Kevin
Bodge, and Police Department and will be prepared at the upcoming meeting to give more
information and answer questions.

are: update of the City of Neptune Beach paid parking program; drafting a recommendation for
consideration to present to the City Commission on the next scheduled meeting; and beach re-
nourishment parking requirements.
