Unfinished Business
A. Bid Opening - Hydraulic Paver
Only one bid was received and opened:
Florida Equipment Company, Jacksonville,Fla. $4, 997.00
The City Manager recommended that the bid be awarded since it
was so low and inasmuch as only minor alterations would be
required on the City truck to accommodate the paver. It was moved,
seconded by Commissioners Mhoon and Minton that the bid be awarded
to Florida Equipment Company, Jacksonville, Florida. Motion was
carried unanimously.
B. Highway Safety Application
Mr. Vogel presented an oral report pertaining to an application
to be submitted to the State of Florida by the City of Jacksonville
Beach. The application, which also encompasses Neptune Beach and
Atlantic Beach, provides for the State to participate in updating
our signs to meet the 1976 standards and to reimburse the Cities
for all monies spent on the program. Motion was made by Commissioner
Mhoon, seconded by Commissioner Minton and carried to approve
submitting the application.
C. Advisory Planning Board
Mayor Howell stated the vacancy created on the Advisory Planning
Board was due to the resignation of Mr. Harold Mullins who was
moving out of town. Mr. Mullins recently called the Mayor and in-
t dicated he would be happy to continue serving on the board as his
plans for moving had been changed. It was moved, seconded by Com-
missioners Mhoon and Minton and carried to re-appoint Mr. Mullins
to the Advisory Planning Board.

from Mr. Walter Parks, Jr. who stated he had inspected and
approved the subdivision streets and utilities, i.e. , water,
sewer and drainage. Mayor Howell pointed out there was one

accept the streets and utilities subject to the payment of $2, 365.00
assessed to 11 lots that are incorporated in the Seaspray Subdivision
by the Interstate Contracting Company (re City of Atlantic Beach

Mhoon and Minton and carried to instruct the City Manager to in-
form the developers that the City Commission has accepted the
approval subject to the payment of $2, 365. 00 in full .
E. Donner Park Project
The City Manager stated all attempts to enjoin contract fulfillment
by the Company contracted to furnish a pre-fabricated building for
Donner Park had failed. Since an agreement to deliver the building
not later than October 11, 1976 was not met, Mr. Vogel requested
City Commission approval to cancel the contract and call for bids
at the next meeting for the building. The City Attorney stated
such action was in order in view of the Company' s failure to
perform. Motion was made by Commissioner Mhoon to cancel the
present contract and call for bids at the next meeting for a
concrete block building to be constructed at Donner Park. Motion
was seconded by Commissioner Minton and carried unanimously.
F. Transfer of City Funds to Parks Project
Mr. Vogel presented the financial status of the Parks Project and
stated that $10, 000 for materials and equipment was needed from
the City in addition to the $5, 000 already provided. The added
$10, 000 is required to satisfy a Coastal Plains Regional Commission
requirement concerning the percentage ratio of labor versus non-
labor costs. After a brief discussion, motion was made by Com-
missioner Mhoon, seconded by Commissioner Minton to approve transfer
of $10,000 from the capitol account to the Title 10 project. Motion

The Mayor pointed out that we had offered to purchase this lot several
years ago and having received no response, the park was designed to
exclude lots 151 and 152 . He also stated that the lot was unsuited
for residential due to its irregular design and suggested that the
owner be given the opportunity to donate the lot to the City and
thus be eligible for income tax credit.
Commissioner Mhoon advised the Commission he had received several
calls recently on dog complaints and would give a report to the
Commission in the near future as to the action he would recommend.
