Florida Regional Planning Council that the City of Atlantic Beach
participate in an energy management program. The Commission had
previously appointed Mr. Davis as energy coordinator, and instructed
him to participate in the program.

following the adjournment of the Commission Meeting. Commission
agreed.
Mr. Davis stated that he had been advised today of a serious break
in the City's sewer system, approximately ten feet underneath the
street surface. Due to the fact the City forces do not have the
capability to repair the break, Mr. Davis obtained a quote from
Jax Utilities in an amount not to exceed $3,000.00.

week when a vehicle hit a fire hydrant at Mayport and Simmons Roads.
The fire hydrant was crushed, resulting in water spillage enough to
undermine Mayport Road, the sidewalks, and surrounding area. It was
determined that the owner of the vehicle does have insurance, and
the City will be reimbursed for all costs involved. Mr. Davis
requested authority to enter into a contract with Jax Utilities to
repair Mayport and Simmons Roads, in the amount of $4,651.00, to be
reimbursed from the insurance company.

A. Planned Unit Development Application by Mr. Billy M. Arzie for
proposed townhouses on Lots 677,678, and 679,S/A-Public Hearing
Mayor Howell recognized Mr. Billy Arzie who presented his plans and
announced that he would like to sell the units as townhouses rather
than duplex. The City Manager added that the plans meet all the
conditions of the code of the City of Atlantic Beach (fire walls,
electrical, plumbing, etc) and the property is zoned Residence B.
Mayor Howell announced that a public hearing was now open and invited
the audience to examine the plans and offer comments from the floor.
Mrs. Gregg asked what street the proposed townhouses would be builton and
had there had been objections from the surrounding neighbors. Mr.
Arzie replied the townhouses would be located on Pine Street, and the
neighbors approved the proposed plans. As no one else spoke for or
against, the Mayor declared the public hearing closed.

B. Planned Unit Development Application by Mr. W.A. Bull for "78 Plac:"
Mayor Howell declared the meeting in session for a Public Hearing,
which was duly advertised according to charter requirements, on "78
Place", which would be constructed under Planned Unit Development.
The chair recognized Mr. George Bull, Jr. to make the presentation,
and answer any questions the audience might have. Mr. Bull presented
a colored drawing of "78 Place", and explained that the "78 Place"
project is part of the original 74 acre airport property that was
zoned PUD several years ago. The project will be a total of 44 lots
and will meet all the requirements of the code of the City of Atlanti'
Beach. The Mayor noted that the original plans approved under PUD
were with the understanding that there would be more than one egress
and ingress to the property. Mr. Bull answered yes, for the total
project. Mr. Bull, Sr. would be obligated to have two egress and
ingress, and he planned to have a loop system when he developed his
portion of the property, but "78 Place" is only one phase, and at thi-
time 11th Street will be the only egress and ingress to the property.
Mr. Bull added that they are in receipt of letters to be filed with
the City, from all adjoining property owners stating that they have
no objections to the plans. Mrs. Gregg, Sailfish Drive, asked if the
had plans to continue 11th Street to Mayport Road, and Mr. Bull said
no. Mr. Parks, the City Engineer, asked if the three easements the
City now owns, for location of a 12" water main going west, a 12"
water main feeding water west to east, and a sewerage force main goin:
to be located in the backyard of the lots that are going to back up
to what would be the centerline of 11th street. Mr. Bull replied in
the affirmative, and Commissioner Van Ness asked how far into the bac•
yard would the easements be. Mr. Parks replied thirty feet.

New Business - continued - "78 Place" Public Hearing
Mayor Howell stated that it would be the responsibility of the City
Commission when the next project starts, to make certain that proper
access on the next portion of the development is provided. Mr. Bull
agreed that there would have to be another street provided and that
should protect the easements. Mayor Howell asked Mr. Bull if there
would be any problem in acquiring a letter from the owner of the
property to the south authorizing any ingress and egress the City may
need over the property to get to the easements for maintenance. Mr.
Bull felt confident that he could furnish such a letter. As no one
else spoke for or against, the Mayor declared the public hearing clos:d.
Motion: Passage of initial approval of Planned Unit Development Mhoon x x

C. Planned Unit Development application by Mr. Mike Ash for a proposed
expansion of mini-warehouses located on 1073 Atlantic Blvd.-Public He.ring
ayor Howell declared the meeting open for a public hearing, which
was duly advertised according to charter requirements, on a Planned
Unit Development application by Mr. Mike Ash for expansion of mini-
warehouses. The Chair recognized Mr. Ash to answer any questions the
audience might have. Mr. Ash presented a drawing of his proposal and
stated that he only intended to use only seventy feet of the property
in order to seal off the back portion of the Atlantic Beach Mini-
warehouses to stop the break-ins that have occurred recently. He
added that this expansion would still be 700 feet from the residents
on Saratoga Circle. Mr. Charles Morris, 75 Saratoga Circle, represent ng
the residents of Saratoga Circle, stated that Mr. Ash had agreed to
advise the City Commission that if he is granted permission to expand
the 70 feet requested, that he will not submit proposals of any furth: r
expansion of the mini-warehouses or to develop the remaining property
for any commercial purposes. Mr. Morris stated that if Mr. Ash would
declare his intentions of the above, the neighbors of Saratoga Circle
would not object to the 70' proposed expansion. Mayor Howell noted
that it was his understanding that the 70' was needed to provide
adequate turning for trucks and police security. He reminded Mr. Ash
that the City has an Ordinance that mini-warehouses can be used for
dead storage only and no other purpose. Mr. Ash stated that he was
aware of the Ordinance. As no one else spoke for or against, the Mayo
declared the Public Hearing closed.
Motion: Approve Planned Unit Development application by Mr. Mik:
Ash for a proposed expansion of mini-warehouses located
on 1073 Atlantic Blvd. , with the understanding that Mr.
Ash will never appear before the City Commission with
another proposed expansion or to attempt to develop the
remaining property for any commercial purposes.

A short discussion followed before the vote, when Commissioner Mhoon
asked all the Saratoga Circle residents present to declare their
feelings on the matter. Mr. Goolsby, 71 Saratoga Circle, agreed with
Mr. Morris that the neighbors would not object if Mr. Ash kept his
promise, and added they would like to see the remaining property
developed as single family residential. Mr. John Andresen added that
Mr. Ash had also made the commitment to the Advisory Planning Board.

D. Public Hearing re: Federal Revenue Sharing Budget
Mayor Howell, announcing that a Public Hearing on appropriations
for Federal Revenue Sharing for the year 1980-81 was in session,
recognized Mr. Davis to respond to questions from the floor. The
City Manager announced that the estimated allocation for the 1980-81
fiscal year was $49,008, along with a carry-over from prior years of
$85,992 making a total of $135,000 available. His suggested
appropriations were:

$135,000.00
Mrs. Gregg, Sailfish Drive, inquired what was the intended usage of
public safety operations, and Mr. Davis replied that the money was
proposed for the total public safety department. A general discussion
ensued with members of the Commission and others in the audience
contributing various suggestions. The Mayor then declared the Public
Hearing closed.
Unfinished Business
A. Recycling and/or Resurfacing Asphalt Paving on certain streets
Mr. Walter J. Parks, Jr.
Mr. Parks verbally presented his letter to the Commission. He stated
that conversations with the bidders indicate that the "base bids"
for the recycling work were higher for several reasons including:
the cost of moving the equipment into the area, and the delay in
spreading new asphalt by the the speed of the recycling machine.
Mr. Parks added that if sufficient funds are available, and the City
desires to commit such funds this fiscal year, he recommended that
a contract be awarded to Dickerson, Inc. in the amount of $64,348.69,
which is the lowest and best bid for the "alternate". Mr. Davis
advised that $35,000 would have to be transferred to the appropriate
account if contract was awarded. Mayor Howell asked Mr. Parks if

some of the milling could be dropped, thereby reducing the total cost
and Mr. Parks advised that matter had not been determined yet. The
Mayor asked if Dickerson would hold their bid open until the next
regular Commission meeting and Mr. Parks answered yes, that he may al•o
be prepared to quote specifically how much of the milling can be dropied.
B. Acceptance of Selva Marina S/D, Unit 12-C Water and Sewer Distribuuion
Mr. Davis requested the item be passed over until the next regular
