Recognition of Visitors
The chair recognized Mrs. Hayes, 275 Sailfish Drive,who inquired if any-
--thing could be done about the trash blowing in her yard from the back
of Pic N Save. Mr. Hilliard commented that he had been in touch with
the home office and was assured that a fence would be constructed in the
near future.
Mr. Charles Miller, 111 Saratoga Circle S. commented that he maintained
City property between his lot line and the street as a lawn and asked
the Commission if cars could be stopped from parking there. The Mayor
thanked him for beautifing City property, and stated that he and Mr.
Davis would visit him on Wednesday to discuss the problem.
Mayor Howell recognized Mrs. Della Koenig, 780 Redfin Drive, who
remarked that the garbage trucks passed her by every Saturday. The Maycr
assured her that Mr. Hilliard would handle the problem the next day.
A discussion then ensued on the landscaping of the Memorial park
adjacent to City Hall. Mr. & Mrs. Thomas McCrary, 230 7th Street, and
Mr. Jerry Alderman, 227 7th Street complained about the type and size
of the recently started rock garden located in the center of the park.
It became apparent that a better understanding of the park project was
needed, and a meeting was set for Wednesday at 6:00 P.M. at the City
Hall with any interested citizens and the City Manager to attend.
The chair recognized Mr. Wally Campbell, 270 6th Street, who advised
the Commission that cars are still speeding on East Coast Drive, and
asked if other stop signs could be erected. Mr. Davis asserted that

Mr. Mock, the traffic engineer from the City of Jacksonville had
visited him. They rode the streets in question. He did not suggest
stop signs at East Coast and Ocean Blvd as they were thoroughfares,
and recommended to merely increase the policing aspect, which the
Chief of Police is now doing. Chief Stucki stated they were writing
about 600 tickets per month at the present time. Mr. Davis suggested
that Mr. Campbell attend the meeting on Wednesday for further dis-
cussions on the matter.
Mr. John Benton, 651 E. Coast Drive, suggested that the old curve
sign be removed that is located about one block away from the stop
sign at 7th and East Coast, and perhaps a "Warning - Stop Sign Ahead '
be erected instead. Mr. Davis thanked him for the suggestion.
