NEW BUSINESS The following Proclamation was read by City Attorney Charles A. Ha~l: liThe City Council and each member thereof has studied the proposed Vo1usia County Charter to be voted upon by the people and have come to the conclusion that the adoption of said Charter would not be in the best interest of the City of Edgewater or its citizens and therefore oppose said Vo1usia County Charter as individuals comprising the City Council of the City of Edgewater, Florida.

II Mayor Cairnie cited two reasons for opposition to the Charter as follows: 1. liThe Road and Bridge Tax will be eliminated after October, 1970, if the Charter is approved. We will not receive any revenue from this tax for paving in our city, but will have to do our own paving, which might cause an increase in our mi11age." 2. lilt takes our County Commission seat away from here and we will have to go to Daytona Beach for any help or services we might need.1I -3- , . u (.) o o NEW BUSINESS, CONT.
