Public Hearing on Proposed HUD Block Grant Pre- Application - Second and Final Hearing Mayor Howell announced that the second Public Hearing ' on .a HUD Block Grant pre-application was now in session after being duly advertised as required. The Mayor recognized Mr. R. A. Goll, of Goll and Assoc. , to explain to citizens,not at the last public hearing, that the City is planning to apply for Federal Grant Funds for 100% funding of' a project through the Department of Housing and Urban Development. He pointed out the various types of projects that are available for funding under this particular grant program. Mr. Goll stated that the primary objectives of the Community Development Pro- gram involve the development of vital urban communities, including decent housing and a suitable living environment, principally for persons in low or moderate income areas, and the Northwest section of Atlantic Beach falls in suc a category. After a thorough investigation with the School District, Police Department, and the State Depart ment of Transportation, Mr. Goll proposed that the numbe one project should. provide for construction of sidewalks along the east side of Mayport Rd. within the City limits and the south side of Plaza; the number two project shoul be a community center adjacent to Donner Park, as such a location is in an area that would have the most impact • in upgrading the neighborhood by providing a multiple- use facility, with several meeting rooms, and a care- taker ' s apartment. He stated he had received several letters supporting the community center from organizations • such as the Girl Scouts. Mayor Howell then opened the floor for any questions from the audience. Mrs. Shirley Lyles, 971 Amberjack, and Mrs. Carter, 31 Forrestal Circle N. , inquired why side- walks would have first priority. Mr. Goll explained there would be one application with. two projects and sidewalks were assigned a higher priority because of safety factors. One of the citizens mentioned the need of a library and Mrs. Margaret Jordan, 1975 Jordan stated a room had been proposed at Jordan Chapel for a library. Mrs . Pat Nicoll, 374 11th St. supported a community center due to the lack of meeting space within the entire city. Mr. Richard Johnson, 857 Bonita Road inquired if the lack of traffic lights had any bearing on safety hazards as to the proposed sidewalks and Mr. Goll stated traffic lights come under the Department of Transportation. MINUTES PAGE SIX V V FEBRUARY 14, 1977 Names of Commrs. M S Y N 9 . c . continued Mr. Leroy Coleman, 705 Bonita Rd. inquired as to a completion time if grant is approved.

Sometime around July 1, 1977 the grant would be approved, and the City would anticipate a Fall completion of both the sidewalks and the community center, provided the application is approved.
