She expressed the opinion ;hat bureaucracy has come to Atlantic Beach. She voiced her objection to 1eing given a parking violation ticket while parked in front of her house. She was parked the wrong direction on Beach Avenue, now a one-way street, which she also objected to. Commissioner Gulliford defended the police department stating that the City's Ordinance was nothing more than a rubber stamp of the State Statute, and encouraged Mrs. Kirkpatrick to give the one-waying of Beach Avenue a chance as he felt the Ordinance will benefit all the citizens living on Beach Avenue by controlling the flow of traffic. Commissioner Johansen expressed the opinion that one-way parking was bureaucracy and stated that every day on his way back and forth to work he sees cars parked the wrong way. He commented that he felt the Ordinance should be repealed or changed. Mayor Persons also recognized Mr. George Bull, Sr. Through some misunder- standing, Mr. Bull was not placed on the agenda.

Commissioner Gulliford expressed the opinion that the restrictions imposed by the City on burning are abnormally harsh to someone that is developing property, such as TRECO and George Bull, as there is a -4.zeable expense to haul off the material when they clear the develop- ots, and that expense is passed onto the consumer. Discussion followed, concerning the cost to developers. That was determined to be an average cost of a little over $200 per lot for Mr. Bull's develop- ment. Chief Stucki explained that in one of the first stages of Selva Marina he had allowed them to burn and there was so much smoke damage to the neighboring homes that the city was threatened with law suits. At that time, the decision was made not to allow burning within the city limits. Mayor Persons asked the City Manager to investigate the matter and report back.
