The meeting was called to order by the Mayor-Commissioner,
Mr . Isaacs.
The minutes of the regular meeting of March 25, 1963, were
approved as written upon motion of Mr . Johansen, seconded by
Mr. Claiborne and carried.
Minutes of the adjourned meeting of March 26, 1963, were
approved as written upon motion of Mr. Johansen, seconded by
Mr . Claiborne and carried.
Minutes of the special meeting of April 2, 1963, were approved
as written upon motion of Mr. Johansen, seconded by Mr. Claiborne
and carried.
Mr . Isaacs recognized visitors present and called for any busi-
ness from the floor not on the agenda.
Mrs. Kerber spoke regarding garbage collection fees. She said
she still feels we are paying enough. She had checked to see
if fees are just for garbage collection or if this was also in-
cluding something else. The account is listed as Sanitation
Account and includes garbage and trash collection. People own-
ing property without houses have trash collected too. They are
not paying garbage fees but are getting trash collection for
vacant lots . Those paying for garbage collection are also
paying for these people, therefore, she felt we should have
separate accounts if we are to have a true picture on garbage
collection fee and would like to bring this point out and see
what can be done about dividing the account.
Mr. Printon thinks there is a very fine line between garbage and
trash collection. It can be carried in Sanitation or Public
Works, where it would be a part of General Budget and General
Revenue as any other street work - the question is whether
trash is a part of sanitation department or street department.
He advised trash collected from vacant lots was for lot cleaning
that owners paid for.

It was moved by Mr. Johansen that the bids be received and turned
over to the City Manager and the Finance Committee for discussion
and report back to the City Commission, seconded by Mr. Claiborne.
Mr. Ulmer rose to ask whether this had been submitted to the
consulting engineer hired by the City. Mr. Printon advised it
had not - it was the same type of equipment advertised for bids
previously. Mr. Ulmer then wanted to know if this bid had been
advertised and Mr. Printon advised an advertisement has appeared
in the paper and Mr. Ulmer had the opportunity to bid. Follow-
ing this discussion, the Mayor put the question and the motion
was carried.
The Commission next went into session for Public Hearing on
Ordinance 65-63-2, being an Ordinance abandoning, vacating and
closing parts of streets situate in the City of Atlantic Beach
and known as Luzerne, Cypress and Belvedere Streets. Said Ordi-
nance was read in full by the Mayor-Commissioner, Mr. Isaacs.
As no one appeared either for or against this Ordinance, the
Mayor closed the Public Hearing. Mr. Lawrence then moved that
Ordinance 65-63-2 be passed on second and final reading, seconded
by Mr. Johansen and carried.
Mr. Printon read a letter from Consulting Engineer Walter Parks
regarding lift station. The one bid for subject project was
disappointing to the writer as well as the Commission. The
existing pump has extremely bad bearings and in his opinion,
the situation is critical. Suggests scope of the project be
increased. The letter was received and filed.
Mr. Printon read a letter from International Pipe & Ceramics
for a rezoning of acreage on Levy Road just west of Tract 3.
Mr. Johansen said he felt the original intent had been that
all this area from Mayport Road west be zoned industrial.
Mr . Howell advised letters were sent out to those people ad-
vising at that time we were considering such a change in zoning
Ona didn't recall any objection - no one particularly cared

one way or the other. It was suggested that this matter be
turned over to the Planning Board, which meets a week from
Wednesday, for their recommendation.
There being no further business, the Mayor declared the
meeting adjourned.
