There being no corrections to the minutes of June 8th, 1964 Mr.
Olsen declared them approved as written.
Mr. Olsen recognized visitors present and called for any business
from the floor not on the agenda. Mr. Henry Isaacs advised that
there seemed to be some misunderstanding about the bill awing the
Coca Cola Compsny for cokes delivered at the park in 1963, and
since a letter had been written by the City to the company advis-
ing that he was an officer of the Little League and one of those
responsible for this bill, he wanted to go on record as protest-
ing the letter written and to state that he was not the president
of or an officer in the Little League organization which function-
ed in Atlantic Beach during the 1963 baseball season and he was in
no way responsible for the bill. It was brought out in the dis-
cussion that the Commission is on record as not favoring the pay-
ing of this bill from taxpayer 's money.
Mr. Bill Donnell of South, Inc. advised that they were preparing
an easment for 25 feet instead of 20 feet as requested for utili-
ties in back of the proposed shopping center. Mr. Donnell also
proposed that if Block 16 is re-zoned to duplex area that they
give an additional 10 foot easment across the south part of this
block 16 which would give driving access for parking at rear of
the duplexes. Mr. Moore moved that the revised Pic & Save Utili-
ty plan as presented be approved subject to the receipt of the eas-
ment for 25 feet, seconded by Mr. Parks and carried.
There was then a discussion as to the additional 10 foot easment

zoning application until a later date.

Brown on a water cut-in which was not made. Mr. Printon recommend-
ed that the refund be made. Mr. Moore moved that approval be given
for refund of $50.00 to Lovie Lee Brown as requested, seconded
