RESOLUTIONS None OLD BUSINESS None NEVi BUSINESS Mayor Armstrong announced that there would be a Public Hearing, January 22, 1964 at 7:30 P.M. in the Community Center, for the purpose of discussing the Proposed Sewage System for the City of Edgewater. He stated that the City Engineers would be there and asked that everyone come to this hearing. Attorney Clark stated that the Fiscal Agents as well as the City Engineers will be present at this hearing. He said he would also be there to answer any questions that might come up from the legal point of the proposed sewage program. Mayor Armstrong announced that there would be another hearing on the same matter on January 29th, 1964 at 7:30 P.M. in the Community Center. . . v u o u Mayor Armstrong announced that Eugene Hodges had a petition for all freeholders in Turnbull Bay District #24 to petition County Commissioners for an election. The petition requires 25% of the freeholders signatures. The purpose of the petition is to call a special election to build a new bridge in New Smyrna Beach. Mr. Hodges said it is a very important thing for this area and hoped everyone would sign this petition. 14ayor Armstrong said that many people have been anxious for the bridge to be moved further south. But the state owns the property and so it must be built in the same place. Mayor Armstrong said that there had been a considerable amount of damage done in the City of Edgewater. Many signs, traffic signs, and stop signs have been destroyed. It is an act of vandalism. He said it is a disgrace to the City and there is a severe penalty for this. He said the Police Department is looking into this very thoroughly. Mayor Armstrong said that BB Guns and Pelt Guns are also illegal. Whoever is doing this destruction is even shooting guns from windows of a moving car and hitting windows where the occupants are home. Mayor Armstrong said that the previous Council had signed an agreement to codify the City Records. Municipal Code Corp. did the codifying. He said the total cost of this is $5,171. They (tHe previous council) had fifty copies of these books printed and the cost of each book to the public would be $101.25. He said he saw no reason why we needed fifty copies or even twenty~five copies. He said that the Council was in the process of checking the legality of the contract that was signed. He said the cost of the book equals out to about $7.50 a page. Attorney Clark said it was done by a private firm which also did the codifying in New Srrwrna Beach. He said it was considerably less in New Smyrna Beach. Mayor Armstrong announded that Dog Tags will be on sale Saturday, January 11, 1964 from 1:00 P.M. - 4:00 P.M.. The Veterinarian will be present at that time to give the rabie shots to the dogs. This will be done in the fire station. When asked if there were any laws in the City of Edgewater for controlling dogs, l~yor Armstronp said that there were but also added that this is a very difficult problem and the Police Department has their hands full right now ,v.ith comnlaints concerning dogs. After a number of questions had been asked concerning the Railroad Crossing in Florida Shores and the speed of the trains, Mayor Armstrong said this Council would look into this once again and see what can be done. Mayor Armstrong said that the petition that Eugene Hodges holds should be turned in by January 16th, 1964 so the County Commissioners can act upon it. There being no further business, motion duly made by Councilman Cairnie we now adjourn, seconded by 60uncilman Ridgdill and there were no obgections. Minutes taken by Marie Robinson.
