TOWNCENTER
Town Center's first half of
Phase I is just about complete. Ap-
proximately 1600 engraved bricks
were laid and the results have yielded
positive and enthusiastic responses
from supporters and onlookers. En-
graved bricks continue to he sold and
will be placed with the bricks sold
since May, 1993, in the second phase
of construction which will continue
west from Ocean Boulevard in front
of the restaurants and stores. Fund-
ing will dictate the starting date for
PhaseH. Brick applications are avail-
able at Bio Max, Sun Dog Diner, and
Beaches Chamber of Commerce. The
cost is $25.00 per brick.
The Town Center Boardis cur-
rently studying a contractfrom Jack-
sonville to receive $250,000 of River
City Renaissance money. Thiswillbe
available pending signature of the
contract which hopefully will be soon.
The Renaissancemoney willbe
used to purchase benches and street
lights and to complete construction of
Phase I which includes adding a
roundabout and a landscaped park to
thebeach. Upon completion of Phase
I, the remainingmoney will be used to
begin Phase II.
Lyman Fletcher has resigned
as president of Town Center to take
on the duties of Mayor of Atlantic
Beach. Interim peresident is John
Moore. Other new board members
elected are CarolDodd, Ann Murphy,
and Terry Chandler.
We would like to thank Lyman
for his great leadership and wish him
well in his role as Mayor of Atlantic
Beach.
Greetings From Mayor Lyman Fletcher
Iam grateful for the opportunity to serve the citizens of Atlantic Beach and
look forward to the many challenges ahead. I hope to use this column to address
specific issues facing our community and to update citizens on pending issues.
LAWSUIT WITH JACKSONVILLE (DUVAL COUNTY)
Atlantic Beach filed suit against Jacksonville (Duval County) in the spring
of this year. That lawsuit alleges that there is dual taxation on the citizens of
Atlantic Beach and is seeking to enforce the Interlocal Agreement between
Jacksonville and Atlantic Beach. The suit also seeks a Declaratory Judgment as
to the use of the landfill and future adjustments in tax apportionment.
We are still at the initial pleadings phase of the case. Judge Martin has
denied Jacksonville's motion to dismiss and ordered mediation with retired
Supreme Court Justice Raymond Ehrlich as the mediator. We will attempt to
resolve all issues by agreement through mediation, but if necessary, will pursue it
through a full blown trial.
Our remedies could include any mix of the following:
(1) reduction of county millage rates paid by Atlantic Beach citizens;
(2) cash payment by Jacksonville to Atlantic Beach;
(3) Jacksonville actually providing a particular service or services for
the citizens of Atlantic Beach.
I will keep you advised as this case progresses. Please come to the City
Commission meetings and workshops for more information on other areas the
Commission will be working on. Please get involved. If all of us work together we
can obtain a better result at lower cost.

Atlantic Beach Citizens:
We have a new look! We hope you will approve.
The Atlantic Beach Courier was paid for with your tax
dollars. The new Atlantic Beach Tide -Views is an adver-
tiser -supported publication, saving you money, but
bringing you the same news from the City Departments
that you have come to depend on. Our object is to help
all citizens of Atlantic Beach stay informed and feeling a
part of our wonderful and unique community.
As the paper grows, we would hope to include
answers to readers' questions. Perhaps a question for the
zoning board, the fire or police department, or water and
sewage questions that would be of interest to others in our
communitiy.
And the paper will grow, thanks to the many
advertisers who, in a very short time, have come forward
to help us get this first issue of Tide -Views to you and on
time. We hope you will make special note of our advertis-
ers. It is they who deserve our special thanks. We ask
that you send your comments and opinions along to us at
Tide -Views, P.O.Box 331542, Atlantic Beach, Fl. 32233.

Citizen Survey
The citizen surveys have been collected and evaluated and
the results were optimistic and helpful. Of the surveys that were
returned, we found that citizens generally have a very positive
view of the Atlantic Beach Police Department and its member-
ship. We found helpful suggestions to improve the safety in
specific neighborhoods and we will use the information to guide
us in setting priorities and policies in the future.
Gun'Buy�-back
On Oct. 23,1993, the Police Department assisted in a gun
buy-back program at Mayport Road and Dudley Street. The
program, operated by the Black Issues Forum, was successful in
obtaining more than thirty guns that, for various reasons,
owners no longer wanted. Some of the firearms were too danger-
ous to shoot, some had been found, some were illegally altered,
and some were inherited by relatives who were afraid of fire-
arms. The gun buy-back program has now removed more than
five hundred firearms from the Jacksonville area.

NEWS FROM FLEET LANDING
We are pleased to be part of Tide -Views and welcome
the opportunity to tell our good neighbors in Atlantic Beach
about Fleet Landing. Atlantic Beach is important to all the
residents of Fleet Landing as it is our home. We have an
abundance of community spirit that extends well beyond the
gates of our retirement community.
As this issue of Tide -Views is published, Fleet Landing
celebrates its third anniversary. December 1, 1990, was the
official opening date for our community of 320 homes and
apartments. The people of Fleet Landing (over 450 now) have
come from as close as Sevilla and other areas ofAtlantic Beach,
and as far away as the state of Hawaii. The blend of residents
in the community are men and women who are retired profes-
sionals of the military and government services as well as
executives of business, medical and academic professions.
There are married couples, single women and single men who
enjoy a lifestyle that allows them to pursue personal goals.
Activities and interests vary considerably among our
residents. Some of the artists enjoy time to paint, sing, dance,
and act. Some of the more sports minded enjoy golf, tennis,
swimming, sailing, croquet and many other sports. We have
a large contingent who are members of Selva Marina Country
Club. Woodworking and craft groups keep the creative resi-
discuss goodbooks or current events, learn a new language, or
improve computer skills.
Volunteerism is a large part of the lives of the people
at Fleet Landing. We are a "Partner in Education" with
Mayport Middle School and have assisted Beaches Habitat in
several ways. Our residents are involved with local govern-
ment and can be spotted at all City Commission meetings. The
local theater groups benefit from the talent of residents of Fleet
Landing. The list goes on and on...
Many of you who are reading this column know all
about Fleet Landing and have perhaps visited old friends or
newfound friends who live here. Some of you have hadfriends
or relatives who have been cared for in the Fleet Landing
Health Center. Others of you might not be familiar at all with
our lifecare retirement community that is in the midst of your
neighborhood. We want to know our ncighbors and we want
youtoknowus. You are encouraged to visit us and find outjust
how we fit into your lives.
We look forward to visiting with you in future issues
of Tide -Views.
"Always, as my mind wanders in the fiiture, thoughts
will turn to the wonderful people I have known through
this experience. This evening, we have clebrated com-
munity, not my departure. Tonight, as I end a reward-
ing career as a citizen politician, I turn to the words of
Longfellow: `Look not mournfully to the past – it comes
not back again; wisely improve the present – it is thine;
go forth to meet the shadowy future without fear, and
with a manly heart.'And so I shall. Thank you, each
and every one for making this a lifetime experience."

Christmas
"Giving Tree"
Adele Grage Community Center
from now until Dec. 23, 1993.
The Parks and Recreation Department has "adopted"
five families who desperately need our help for Christmas.
You can help one of the families by participating in the
"Giving Tree." Pick a tag from the "Giving Tree" at the Adele
Grage Community Center from now until Dec. 23 between 8
am and 4 pm, and the tag will indicate a gift that is needed by
the "adopted" family. After the gift is purchased, please wrap
it, tape the tag back onto the gift and bring it back to the
Adele Grage Community Center. An individual, family,
neighbors, or office staff can adopt a whole family. For the
past four years the citizens of Atlantic Beach have shared
their good fortune with neighbors and it makes for a SUPER
community doing what it does best—CARING.

BUILDING DEPARTMENT
What Are Building Setbacks and
Why Are They Necessary?
Building setback is a term very familiar to builders and
to planners, but not to most people who are affected by them.
Here is why they are an important part of most cities' laws.
Setbacks are actually nothing more than measure-
ments. They are minimum measurements from a property
line to the point where a building can be built. So, a "front
yard setback" is the minimum distance from the front prop-
erty line back to the point where the front wall of the building
can be built. Generally, the front and rear setbacks are the
same -20 feet in most areas of Atlantic Beach. The side set-
backs are usually 5, 7.5, or 10 feet. Setbacks can be changed
by the City Commission by passing new laws, and, in fact,
many of the older buildings in Atlantic Beach were built
before there were any setbacks at all.
What is the purpose of these setback requirements?
First is a concern for safety. Buildings built too close to the
street can be hazards to pedestrians and can impair the vision
of drivers. They also create a crowded appearance which
most communities do not want. Side and rear setbacks keep
buildings separated from each other which reduces the
hazard of fire spread. The separation also provides more
privacy to home owners by reducing the amount of noise that
gets transmitted from house to house. The side setbacks also
provide the open, uncrowded appearance that most residents
find pleasing.
As shown above, although setbacks restrict where an
owner can build on his or her property, the restrictions all
have important safety considerations as well as aesthetic
purposes. Setbacks are in place first for safety, and then for
appearance. If you have any questions regarding setback
"As I look around the room at the faces of so many
friends, I see people representing the differences of
culture, race, and background, yet bound by a common
goal, a desire to make our place, our community, our
lives, better. I am heartened by what we have accom-
plished, for indeed, it would have never worked without
each of you. ".... Mayor Bill Gulliford at his "Roast",
November 10, 1993.

REE ROTECTION
The City of Atlantic Beach has an existing Tree Preser-
vation Ordinance which controls the removal of trees from
property within the city. This ordinance provides the city
with a means to review proposed tree
removals prior to granting permis-
sion, to suggest alternatives which
may save more trees, and to prohibit
tree removals which damage the
environment and serve no necessary
purpose.
Restrictions of the rights of
property owners to use their property
are sensitive, but fairly common
practices of local governments. The choice of use of ones
property can adversely affect neighbors and the use of their
properties. Restrictions are placed by local governments to
limit the harm done and to encourage the more beneficial
uses. Uncontrolled removal of trees can be harmful to the
community as a whole, and, therefore, most cities restrict
such removals.
In the city of Atlantic Beach tree removals related to
new construction are required to go before the Tree Conser-
vation Board for a review and approval. For owner occupied
residences, trees on the same lot as the home are exempted
from the approval process and do not require a permit. All
other tree removals must be permitted and may have to go
through a Tree Conservation Board review. If you have any
questions regarding tree removals, or if you need to find out if
a tree is exempted from the provisions of the tree ordinance,
Please call George Worley at 247-5826.
CITY CLERK
In the city election on Oct. 5, 1993,
you elected Lyman Fletcher as your Mayor
for the next two years. Bob Weiss was
elected to a two-year term to fill the
unexpired term of Lyman Fletcher on the
city commission and Suzanne Shaughnessy
and Steven Rosenbloom were each elected
for four-year terms on the city commission.
Lyman Fletcher The city commission meets in City
Hall at 7:15 pm on the second and fourth Monday of each
month and we encourage you to attend these meeting and
participate in your local government.
While we welcome these new city officials and look
forward to working with them, we will miss the familiar faces
of Adelaide Tucker, Glenn Edwards and Bill Gulliford, who
have served the City of Atlantic Beach for a total of over
sixty years. Both Adelaide and Glenn had served the city as
employees before being elected to the city commission and Bill
served as a city commissioner before becoming Mayor. These
public servants were dedicated to preserving the character
and quality of life in the city and gave unselfishly of their time
to make Atlantic Beach a better place for all. We will miss
theme.

We have now received and put into service our new I Try us for Dinner with this ad
semi-automatic defibrillator. This piece of equipment will
allow our firefighters to give quicker and more efficient
treatment to victims of heart attacks. The purchase of this
equipment, at a cost of $6,198, was made possible by the
generous donations of our citizens. We received donations
in excess of the amount needed to purchase one unit and if we
receive enough money we will purchase a second defibrillator
so we can have one unit available on each truck. We need
approximately $3,500 to be able to purchase a second unit
and anyone wishing to make a donation should contact the
Fire Department at 249-5606
UBLIC WORKS DEPT.
Stormwater
On Oct. 25, 1993, we experienced a
very intensive rainstorm which flooded many of
our streets. Due to the intensity of the rainfall and
the water level in the receiving waters, much of this
flooding could not be relieved even with stormwater improve-
ments. However, on that evening the City Commission
approved the design of a storm water master plan. This effort
is funded by the storm water charges on the water bills and
will lead to construction projects in areas where flooding can
be reduced or eliminated.
City ditches are routinely maintained. However,
additional assistance is needed from the community. These
critical drainage ditches should not be used for dumping
shopping carts, old mattresses and other debris. Please
report any persons guilty of such dumping to the Police
Department at 249-5606 or Public Works at 247-5834.
The following construction projects are either in
progress or have been recently completed:
1. Installation of water lines on Third and Eighth Streets,
Coquina Place, Dewees Avenue, Ocean Grove Drive, and
East Coast Drive between Tenth and Twelfth Streets;
2. Paving and construction of sidewalks on Church Road
west of Mayport Road;
3. Construction of a chlorine contact chamber and one -ton
handling facility at the Buccaneer wastewater treatment plant;
4. Fiberglass lining of the Atlantic Beach sewer wetwells at six
lift stations.
Key projects about to begin are:
1. Construction of Church Road east of Mayport Road;
2. Oak Harbor sewer rehabilitation.
Water
The Water Utility Division is making efforts to install
encoded register water meters, or "touchread meters," to
expedite meter reading. This effort and computer software
improvements should improve the regularity at which water
bills are rece <ved.
