The City Clerk asked for instructions from the City Commission on
the collection of monies for occupational licenses for the year
1972 and 1973 . Mayor Howell stated that all the business people in
Atlantic Beach have, over the past two years, been paying the City
of Jacksonville for a municipal occupational license. The City
felt at the time that this was illegal . The position of the City
was later confirmed by the First District of Appeals and the Su-
preme Court of the State of Florida. Those people who paid this
fee will be refunded for their past two years. Therefore, the City
should make every effort to collect for the years 1972 and 1973 .
Mayor Howell stated that the City should wait until the citizens
receive their refund from Jacksonville before the City of Atlantic
Beach makes an attempt to collect for 1972 and 1973 . Mr. Ball
stated that their refund will be greater than our occupational
license fee.
Mr. Hilliard requested permission to swap a garbage truck for a
large dump truck. This exchange will be with the City of Neptune
Beach. Mr. Ball, City Attorney, stated that Mr. Hilliard would
need Commission approval and a resolution stating the terms of the
trade. Mr. Ball suggested that this request be put on the agenda
for consideration at the next meeting .
Mayor Howell stated that Mr. Vogel had written to the owners of
Place By The Sea Apartments informing them that their utility bill
is in arrears . The letter pointed out that the utility bill has
been delinquent since the cut-off date of August 15, 1974. The
City Commission directed the City Manager to notify the tenants that
the water service will be discontinued if payment is not received
by September 10, 1974°
Mr. Vogel reported that he had done research on cross corner visabil
ty. In order to promote safety, he recommended placing "No Parking
Here to Corner" signs. This will reduce the number of blind corners
in Atlantic Beach, There were no objections from the City Com-
mission.

be re-appointed. The Board now consist of the following members:

purpose units of local government in the Jacksonville-Duval County
Metropolitan area to develop and implement a plan resulting in a

sented by Mayor Howell. He stated that he had some misgivings
about the resolution, but saw no alternative but to recommend
passage. It was moved by Commissioner Minton, seconded by Com-
missioner Rosborough that Resolution No. 74-9 be adopted. During
the discussion, Commissioner Cook asked for clarification of the
last paragraph that stated---"all proposals for grants for con-
struction of publicly owned treatment works within the boundaries
of the designated area will be consistent with the approved plan
and will be made only by the designated management agency. " Mayor

approve our existing sewer plant. The city must have a central
agency to handle the entire area and the Jacksonville Area Planning
Board is the designated management agency. There being no further
questions, Commissioner Cook called for the question. The motion
