Tape lB
At this time Mr. Fernandez was given the floor. He made a presentation in
regard to the 201 Plan. He went into detail explaining the different phases
of this operation. He explained that what we expect to happen is that these
lines will be a portion of the final 201 submitted to the D.E.R. and the E.P.A.
and when they concur with these recommendations they would become illegible
items and at some point in the future when construction was desired, applica-
tion could be submitted to the department for step 2 and step 3 funding. At
present the Federal share would be 75%. He added that at this time there is
no commitment in the 201 for the City of Edgewater to spend any money, until
approximately 1990 or 1995 for the Treatment Plant. He read the recommenda-
tions from the report, copies of which the members of the Council had.
Mayor Armstrong stated that he highly recommmends that the Council adopts this
program because it is very well done, and written by two very good engineering
firms in the area.
There was one other item that Mr. Fernandez was asked to explain to the Council
and it was decided to go into this now. The bill from the Meridith Corporation
was the item. He explained that they are asking for $21,937.50 and he went over
what exactly this is for.
Mr. Fernandez also explained that the bill from McMahan Construction Company is
for the payment of the amount of money that was held on retainer while we were
waiting for the material to arrive under the change order.
Councilman Dietz stated that this does not pay for the change order.
Mr. Fernandez stated that this is correct.
Mayor Armstrong stated that we had a billing on July 27, 1977 which shows
$463,147.42, which at that time the Consulting Engineers had been paid on a
percentage basis according to our contract $12,504.98 and representing 100%
payment. This all meaning that the job was completed July 27, 1977 and now
we are coming up with a bill for $23,000 and this does not include the change
order for the skimmer bars and so on?
Mr. Fernandez stated that the total amount due to date is $464,263. He explained
that the bill that he has now is from May 28, to June 30, 1977.
Mayor Armstrong asked if this has been approved by Farmers Home?
The City Clerk explained that we have to sign it and send it over to them.

Tape 2B
Councilwoman Webber made a motion to accept this resignation, being seconded
by Councilman Sikes.
Mrs. Woodard questioned the vacancy of the Council seat that may result in
the event Mr. Dietz is to win. She asked if there would be an election to
fill the seat, and if it is true that as of this date petitions can be picked
up for the opening if it occurs? She read from the information she received
from Mr. Hall pertaining to her resignation from the board she was on.
Councilman Dietz stated that on a referendum it was passed that any unoccupied
seat on the City Council for an unfinished term would be appointed by the City
Council unless it got to the point where a decision could not be made then it
would go to an election. He stated that he would like this referred to our
attorney.
Mrs. Woodard read further from the information that she had.
Mayor Armstrong explained this also, he said that we did have a referendum on
this and it was passed.
There was more discussion about this being the law.
Councilman Sikes asked if we could have our attorneyls opinion on this.
Attorney Woods stated that he would feel that the City is bound by the Florida
Statutes.
Mayor Armstrong stated that this brings up a question to him. Is a resignation
effective on November 8th, submitted on this date complying with the Florida
Statutes.
Attorney Woods stated that this was done right. The resignation was submitted
ten days before, and this complies with the election law.
There was some discussion about what recently happened in Daytona Beach on a
matter of this sort.
Councilman Dietz asked if this has to be advertised that there may be a vacancy?

Mayor Armstrong stated that no one can be appointed until such time as the
seat is declared vacant. The resignation does not go into effect until
November 8th.
Mrs. Woodard spoke again about this, stating that if Mr. Dietz wins there
will be a vacant seat, and if he doesn't he will go back into his Council
seat.
It was explained to her that there will be a vacancy on November 8th no matter
if Councilman Dietz wins the election or not.

The City Clerk read a letter from Edgar M. Dunn in regard to appointing a
represenative from the City of Edgewater to become a voting member of the
Volusia Coastal Area Metropolitan Planning Organization. She explained that
the contents of this letter is that we are too small of an area to have a
representative. This was a matter of information, no action was taken.
The City Clerk read a letter from Charles A. Hall, attorney for Mr. and
Mrs. Sauers, owners of Carter's Motel and Mobile Home Park, in regard to
the zoning of their property. They have a chance to sell this property
however the zoning is jeopardizing the sale. They would like this rezoned
or have the Motel listed as an accessory use.
This was discussed with the City ~ttorney. Councilman Dietz stated that he
feels that the rezoning of this was done in error. The front part of this
property should have been zoned B-3.
Mayor Armstrong stated that he thinks that we can get the information on this
tonight and come to a solution.
A recess was called in order to get the needed information to discuss this
matter further.
The Council went over this matter thoroughly with the City~Attorney.
Attorney Woods stated that it would seem feasible to allow these people to
maintain that B-3 Zoning on the highway property. He stated that the Council
can handle this, however they will have to go through the normal channels of
holding a Public Hearin~. You have to comply with the law.
Councilman Dietz made a motion to instruct the City Clerk to take the necessary
action to advertise for a Public Hearing on October lOth for the rezoning of the
Carter Motel property to a classification on the front of it will be B-3 and the
back of it to remain MH-l, he asked at this time about the footage...
Attorney Woods stated that he thinks you had better get a request from the property
owner to rezone this.
Councilman Dietz stated that he will amend his motion for the City Clerk to
instruct them to proceed immediately with a request, and as the request is
made then to go ahead and advertise for the lOth of October and send the
letter certified and sealed by the City Clerk notifying them that it is the
intention of the City Council to proceed with the proper zoning changes to
make this compatible with the sale, being seconded by Councilman Sikes.

Mayor Armstrong stated that he has a letter from Bill Conway addressed to
Volusia County Council of Governments, which he was given at the meeting
last week. Mr. Conway is asking the municipalities if they have any sug-
gestions or changes in the present election laws that were adopted in this
last session. If we have any they should be brought to their attention by
October the 8th, for their meeting.
Mayor Armstrong also said that he is proud to say that the 208 Water Quality
reports show that Halifax River from a point just south of Port Orange down
to the Volusia County line is safe for any kind of fishing, bathing and so on.
The report on the water north of this shows that the water is practically a
cess pool. He went on to explain that they are looking into various ways of
treating this situation.
Councilman Sikes stated that we were in trouble until we got the new Water
Plant.
Mayor Armstrong stated that we have gone a long way and we still have a ways
to go.
Councilman Dietz stated that he would like to inform the people that New Smyrna
Beach is in dire trouble because of the fact that they are pumping salt and a
million gallons a day out of those wells. They are trying to buy new land now.
He added that we have to get our new plant, because we don't want to get con-
nected to that because the costs are going to be terrific.
Mayor Armstrong stated that at one of our meetings early in November we will
have a program arranged for the 208 Consultant and Engineers for the purpose
of bring to our attention what this 208 Quality Program is. This is to
educate the public.
AUDIENCE MISCELLANEOUS:
Tape 3B
Mrs. Taylor spoke to the Council about the room next to the Chamber of Commerce
room needing to be painted.
Mayor Armstrong stated that we just need to get a man over here and get it painted.
Mr. Tom Duane spoke to the Council about the Tax District for the fire protection.
He explained what the Fire Department's purpose in this is. He explained that
this has all been discussed with the department's members, and we are in no way
entering into an agreement with the County that would be a conflict with the
Fire District, as incorporated here in the City of Edgewater. IThe City will
always be the first priority. He explained that this is still being worked on
and he has assured his department that they will be allowed to read anything
on this and questions will be answered. Mr. Duane stated that he has another
subject to speak on, and Mrs. Webber did not know he was bringing this up.
He asked Mayor Armstrong what the millage was for the past year?
Mayor Armstrong stated that he believes that it was 5.678. He answered that
this is the same millage set for this year. He explained that on the taxable
property there was about a $4 million increase in the evaluation in this past
year.
Mr. Duane asked if by law we have to reduce to maintain the same income?
Councilman Dietz stated that the only way to change this is to hold a Public
Hearing.
Mayor Armstrong explained that this has to be done back in June, and he explained
that the cost is very high.

Mr. Duane spoke to the Council about the Fire Department budget, and the fact
that the figures were cut from what he originally had put down. He added that
this gets embarrassing for him. He said that as Fire Chief he can in no way
give this budget to the department with his recommendation. He said that he
will be bringing the new fire officers to the Council after the election is
through with.
Councilman Dietz tried to explain that the Council had quite a bit of trouble
trying to get this budget balance this year. He explained that the City had
to make a decision about a retirement fund, and if we do this it will be in
lieu of any raises for the employees. He explained that we did set up Emer-
gency and Contingency in the event anything comes up during the year.
Mr. Duane stated that what is happening is over the years you are cutting the
throat of the Fire Department. You can not hold them to a given figure and
cut it lower each year and expect the department to stay as good as it is.
He also suggested that the different department heads be invited to the budget
workshops when their portion of the budget is going to be discussed so that they
can fight for their departments.
There was quite a bit of discussion between Mr. Duane and the Council about this.
Mayor Armstrong stated that he will have to say, he doesn't want to be critical
about it, however he never has said that he is in agreement with the budget, he
never has agreed on the actual income and anticipation of income sheet.

Q
o
OLD BUSINESS:
The Council discussed the Maule Industries letter about the pipe that the
City was now asked to return. It was explained that the City tried to re-
turn this pipe at one time and they said that they did not want it. Now
they want it returned.
Attorney Woods stated that he would think that a letter from the City Clerk
explaining that we tried to take it back once, and now if they want it now
they can come get it.
Councilman Dietz made a motion that we instruct the City Clerk to write a
letter telling them that we attempted to bring the pipe back and it was
refused and now...
There was conversation again at this point, Mayor Armstrong stated that he
doesn1t think that we need a motion. The City Clerk said that she would
write the letter.
The City Clerk stated that the next letter i.s from the Vo1usia County Drug
Council, and the Chief is waiting for some more information from Mrs. Anapo1.
The City Clerk stated that the next item is adding duplexes to R-4 Zoning
and she suggested that this be advertised along with the other one for
October 10th.
The Council looked over the permitted uses under the R-4 Zoning.
Councilman Dietz stated that the City Clerk should write the board a letter
telling them that we feel that duplexes was already covered under R-4 as
Multi-family dwellings.
The City Clerk explained that the Ordinance calls for 1800 square feet per
dwelling, they want this changed to 1500 square feet in order to have duplexes.
Councilman Dietz made a motion that we table this until next week, being
seconded by Councilman Sikes. Upon roll call vote said motion CARRIED, 5-0.
NEW BUSINESS:
The City Clerk stated that Mr. Hawver, of Hawver's Guard Service lives at
1604 Bradford Road, and he wants to move his business to Edgewater at 104
North Ridgewood, and it is not a permitted use.
It was discussed that all he wants is a telephone and an answering service.
Councilman Sikes made a motion that the license be granted to him, being
seconded by Councilman Dietz. Upon roll call vote said motion CARRIED, 5-0.
The next item is Briley, Wild bill in the amount of $9,615.66. Councilman
Dietz stated that this is going to be a long and drawn out argument, so he
makes a motion that we table this until next, being seconded by Councilman
Sikes. Upon roll call vote said motion CARRIED, 5-0.
Councilman Dietz stated that this is something that has to be done before
November. It is a 10% penalty on garbage bills that is in excess of twenty
days. At the present time we have no penalty for garbage bills and we have
a lot of people who pay nothing but garbage bills. He made a motion to in-
struct the attorney to draw up the Ordinance for the next meeting on a penalty
schedule set up on garbage collection, which will be based on a twenty day pay-
ment period after date of billing and that the penalty will be 10% and a cut
off period will be based on 45 days after non payment,
Councilman Sikes stated that he thinks that you are leaving an out for the
people who don't want their garbage to just get it cut off.
Councilman Dietz stated that the Board of Health says that you can1t let your
garbage accumulate, and you can't haul it away.
-8-
Q
o
Mayor Armstrong stated that he feels that we need a Public Hearing on a
matter of this type.
There was discussion with the attorney about this. Attorney Woods stated
that he could not give an opinion on this tonight he will need some time
to look it over.
Councilman Dietz stated that he has been told by May, Zima that this has
to be done by November and it will take a while to get this taken care of.
There was discussion at this time about the garbage cans being left out at
the street all of the time, and that there should be a law about having to
removed the cans from the street within a certain amount of time after pick
up.
Attorney Woods stated that you are going to have to have some type of
approval to change this Ordinance, and that is what is going to happen.
Councilman Dietz stated that they are trying to simplify the billing process.
Mayor Armstrong stated that he does not agree with this, because the City of
Edgewater is not picking up the garbage anymore.
Councilman Sikes stated that we are talking about something different now,
we are talking about delinquent bills.
There was more discussion between Mayor Armstrong and Councilman Dietz about
this.
Attorney Woods stated that the penalty Section 12 will just have to be amended
but the Council is going to have to decide on this and an Ordinance should be
drawn up.
Councilman Dietz stated that he would like to instruct the City Attorney to
draw up an Ordinance amending 611 to provide for a penalty of 10% after 20
days from the billing date of the garbage collection and a cut off of garbage
collection service after 45 days...
Discussion began again about how this will effect someone who wants to just
let the collection stop. Councilman Sikes stated that if someone runs de-
linquent for a whole year it will only cost them some $4.00, and it would
cost the City a lot more than that for the filing fees and attorney fees.
He said that it will cost us less in the long run to elliminate a penalty
on the garbage.
Councilman Dietz asked what are you going to do about the water then? All
of this goes on one bill, and the computer will not be able to distinquish
between the penalty on the water and sewer bills and no penalty on the garbage.
Councilman Sikes stated again that you are just looking for trouble by doing
this, because people will come in and say that they don't want the garbage
pick up anyway.
It was explained that right now, the water, sewer and garbage are all on one
bill, but for a delinquent bill, we charge 10% of the water and sewer. What
we want to do is be able to charge 10% of the overall bill which will include
the garbage figure.
Mayor Armstrong asked who's idea this was?
The City Clerk explained that it was May, Zima's computer programer's suggestion.
She explained that if we don't agree on this, we will program the computer to
send out two sets of bills, one for the water and sewer and one for the garbage.
Councilman Dietz stated that the City is going to pay the contractor regardless
of whether the people pay their bills or not, and the City is going to pay the
full amount.
Councilwoman Webber seconded Councilman Dietz's previous motion.

Mr. Opal asked if he is to understand that May, Zima is dictating this 10%
penalty to coinside with the computer?
Mayor Armstrong stated that he asked a while ago whose idea this was and
he was told that it was May, Zima's.
Councilman Sikes stated to elliminate two billings.
Upon roll call vote said motion CARRIED, 4-1. Mayor Armstrong voting NO.
Councilman Dietz stated that there is one more thing. The present delinquent
penalty for the water and sewer is based on thirty days, and we want this
changed to read from thirty days to twenty days from the date of billing,
this will be to coinside with the fact that we are going to have two billings
a month now. He added that he makes this in the form of a motion, to instruct
the attorney to draw up an Ordinance to make the change, being seconded by
Councilman Sikes. Upon roll call vote said motion CARRIED, 4-1. Mayor
Armstrong voting NO.
MISCELLANEOUS:
The City Clerk stated that Mrs. Kinsey asked if you could do something about
the business and commercial garbage rates. The Ordinance reads that you will
charge $5.00 per business or commercial unit with a maximum of three cans and
$1.00 for additional can. How are you going to charge garbage to a mini ware-
house?
It was decided that each one of the doors is considered a unit.
considered a business, so they should pay a business rate. Then
cided that if a business license is issued, then they should pay
rate, however if someone rents one space to store a boat or such
is really no business there.

Tape 5B
At this time there was some discussion again about how long the garbage cans
should be allowed to remain at the street.
Chief Baugh stated that he can not enforce any such law until it is on the
books somewhere.
Councilman Dietz made a motion that we instruct the City Attorney and the
Chief of Police to get together and decide a time to be put on this and
have the attorney draw it into the Ordinance, being seconded by Councilman
Sikes. Upon roll call vote said motion CARRIED, 5-0.
