He spoke in reference to the December 28, 1981 meeting at which the Advisory Planning Board recommended tentative approval of the PUD application submitted by TRECO on the Church property without first reviewing and approving the covenants and restrictions. A Public Hearing has been set for February 8, 1982. Mr. Bull objected to the covenants and restrictions draft that TRECO had furnished him saying they were nothing but a stereotype, and he expressed the opinion that the Commission, as in the past, should not set a Public Hearing until after the Advisory Planning Board had reviewed and approved both the plans and covenants and restrictions, Mayor Persons asked the city Attorney if final approval was required before setting a Public Hearing and Mr. Ball replied no, that the Advisory Planning Board was advisory only, and action could be taken without the Planning Board's recommendation. Mr. Bull stated that the city's precedent has been set never to do that, and asked why now? Commissioner Gulliford responded with a case in point of the time frame that the city passed on the Public Hearing being a shorter period than Mr. Bull had experienced. Commissioner Gulliford stated that the original date was changed from January 11, 1982 to February 8, 1982 just to be consistent, not to correct, and stated that he did not personally feel the city was trying to single anyone out. Commissioner Van Ness reminded PAGE TWO V V MINUTES Names of JANUARY 11, 1982 Commr s. MS Y N Recognition of Visitors - continued Mr. Bull that she had sat on the Advisory Planning Board for the past four years and they had approved one of Mr. Bull's Selva Marine Units without the covenants and restrictions after Mr. Bull advised the Board the covenants and restrictions were basically the same as his other units, and he would present them at the Public Hearing. She added that, in the case of TRECO, the Advisory Planning Board will meet on January 19th to review their covenants and restrictions and the Board will submit their recommendation on February 8th before the Public Hearing is held. Discussion followed. Mayor Persons advised Mr. Bull that he could rest assured if the covenants and restrictions did not meet the requirements of the Advisory Planning Board or the Commission,final approval of the Planned Unit Development application would not be granted. Advisory Planning Board Commissioner Van Ness reported that the Board will meet on January 19, 1982 at 7:30 p.m. and the public is cordially invited. City Manager's Report A. Item #1 - Award of Contract for Four "Police Package Automobiles' Mr. Moss presented a written report and tabulation of bids for the four "Police Package" automobiles. Of the eleven area automobile dealerships receiving specifications and bid documents, only one firm, Nimnicht Chevrolet, submitted a bid. The bid price submitted by Nimnicht Chevrolet is as follows: Alternate A: Four Police Package Autos as specified Each $ 9, 131.09 Ext. 36,524. 36 Less:Trade-Ins 4,220.00 Net Bid $32,304,36 Alternate B: Four Police Package Autos as specified WITHOUT Trade-Ins 9, 131. 09 Ext. 36,524.36 Copy of City Manager's Report is attached hereto and made a part hereof. Discussion followed. The suggestion was made that in the future, perhaps it would be wise to join Jacksonville Beach, who specifies a similar automobile, so that the order will be more than the minimum of five vehicles in order to obtain the police package.

Of the eleven area automobile dealerships receiving specifications and bid documents, only one firm submitted a bid. At the request of the City Manager, staff surveyed several dealers to deter- mine why a proposal was not submitted. Jack Lynch Chevrolet advised that dealers were required to order a minimum of five vehicles in order to obtain the police package. Lynch advised they could not order five vehicles. Thompson Chevrolet suggested that they did not bid for a combination of rea- sons, which included requirement to purchase five cars, and the fact that the plants were closed down over the holidays. Nimnicht Chevrolet, the sole bidder, concurred that they were required to buy five vehicles, and that they had hoped to sell the fifth vehicle elsewhere. In 1979, the City paid $5,700 per vehicle with trade. The bid price submitted by Nimnicht Chevrolet with trade-ins is $8,076.09 per vehicle, an increase of 42%. Calls were made to two cities which recently purchased police package automobiles. Fernandina Beach, which specified a few more options, received a low bid of $9,600. This was the lowest of three bids. Jacksonville Beach, specifying a similar automobile, received a low bid of $8,955 from Thompson Chevrolet. Because many dealers received the specifications and were afforded the opportunity to submit proposals, and because there does not appear to be any evidence that the only bid price is significantly out of line with prevailing prices, the City Manager suggests that the City Commission may wish to waive their requirement that two or more bids be received for this purchase. Under special conditions, the City Commission may waive the requirement for two or more bids. Nimnicht Chevrolet offered $4,220 for the trade-in on six vehicles. Two of the vehicles are scrap --- hence their value is negligible. Assuming the trade-in • value was to apply against the four police vehicles being traded in, each vehicle received a trade in value of $1,055. The City has no way of knowing whether or not we can obtain more by selling the vehicles through an auction. Jack Lynch had advised, however, that in evaluating whether they would submit a bid, they had determined that a trade in value of $1,100 would have been appropriate. A used car dealer in town has advised that his wholesale house suggested they may pay $1,050 to $1, 350. Delivery of the new vehicles is not expected for at least another 70 days. The City Manager suggests that we commit these vehicles to be traded and make future maintenance decisions accordingly. Recommended Action: Award of contract by City Commission is requested.
